Deceptive Appearance

This over priced Fancy looking place needs a ton of work. I normally stay at the Ritz Carlton but decided to give this place a try because it was close to UAB. The staff was amazing, when I told them about the Elevator stopping abruptly on 2 when it should have gone to the first floor, causing us to be elevated off our feet. The staff closed the elevator immediately. The TV didn't work but maintenance was sent right away. The tile floors are coming up, the water was extremely hot in the sink and I could not change the temperature. Overall the bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. The roof top bar was a decent place to have a drink and appetizers. The staff at the front desk and the bells persons were amazing. Management did contact me to apologize for the inconveniences. I appreciate that but the extra points , free food and drinks don't overshadow poor maintenance for an overpriced stay. Live up The expectations of the Website.

Right in downtown Birmingham. The area felt safe but most of the buildings were empty. Valet staff was very friendly & helpful. The front desk attendant was NOT friendly at all when we checked in.

Didn’t love the decor of this property and it was a little noisy. We could hear traffic noise from the street. Did not like the doors on the shower and commode area. Bed was comfortable though.
